I've been here but not posting in this thread. No pro boxing to talk of as such! The Olympic boxing was great for team GB. Will be interesting to see which fighters turn pro, and which promoters they go with.
Mick Hennessey on Channel 5 will give the fighter massive exposure but with limited dates and Mick's limited funds it could take a long time for the fighters to reach their true potential.
Eddie Hearn on SKY will give the fighters some great exposure and should progress their careers nicely. They will have the chance to box on the undercards of Carl Froch and Kell Brook which will be a great experience.
Frank Warren on BoxNation will give the fighters least exposure but can get them out anywhere between 5 and 10 times in the year easily. Frank also has a proven track record of getting his fighters British, Commonwealth, European and World title fights within 5 years of turning pro with him.
I would love to go to Burns Vs. Mitchell but I can't afford it. Got the wife's birthday next month and our first anniversary. A punch up in the SECC isn't high on her priority list! Are you going to the fight?

it does also say
Later that day BoxNation will show delayed footage of a Golden Boy Promotions Solo Boxeo show from Texas between lightweights Carlos Molina and Marcos Leonardo Jimenez.

I don't remember it either. I'm sure Buncey would have mentioned it during the live broadcast of Chavez Jr. and Lee. Hopefully I didn't miss it due to Virgin not updating the EPG info correctly!
